New workspace UI

Hi - a lot of people are quite dissatisfied and disappointed with the new changes.  I really loved Edge's vision and features, but with the new changes, I am probably going back to Chrome.

The things I miss from the last release (please reimplement in a new version immediately!) are:

• Workspaces listed in Favorites as hyperlinks:  I liked the fact that I could easily search through 52 workspaces and able to open up a specific workspace by clicking on the respective hyperlinked text.  With 52 workspaces, it is impossible to search and find and open a specific workspace I am interested in opening and working on.
  I am not sure why this was completely removed from the Favorites page.  I can still search and find the workspace, but I can't easily open it since it is no longer hyperlinked :( 
• Manual sort. I liked the fact that I could display the Workspaces in any order I wanted to by simply grabbing and moving the workspace.  This allowed me to stay organized and list the workspaces based on my preferences and needs.
  The new update lists workspaces by `last opened` or ` last modified` which, while it is somewhat helpful, It is a pain .
• Workspace name on the top-right corner.  I like that I can see the name of the workspace I am working on by checking the top-corner of the Edge window.  Unfortunately, this is not enabled on pinned workspaces so, If I have 2-3 pinned workspaces, I can't really easily see which one is open and what the other ones are by checking the top corner (there is no text displaying/showing the name of the workspace).
• Sidebar has been completely retired in Windows Edge ... I really liked the value and having a sidebar for my favorite and frequent sites ... why did you remove this? FYI - it is still available on MAC. 

I have sent multiple feedback and ideas via Edge; however, it seems like all were ignored so far.  I am also disappointed by the fact that Microsoft Edge team does not improve their product(s) based on customer feedback or user feedback ... this is sad.

Thanks again! 

I understood workspaces to be a way for users to organize many windows and tabs, especially for work. Part of organizing is keeping things in a desired order. Removing the ability to order workspaces is just like removing the ability to order tabs (a change I assume no one would consider helpful). I'm baffled by how this version got past any basic usability review.

I was genuinely disappointed by the workspace update.

The old design was small and compact, while the new one is oversized and introduces a scrollbar.

And that’s not even mentioning the colors.

I really don’t need the entire window to be colorized — it was enough to have just the workspace selection highlighted.

I used a dark theme everywhere and only distinguished workspaces by color.

Now the whole window is colored, which feels unnecessary.

I understand removing the option to invite users to the workspace, but otherwise… it’s just not a good change.

No kidding. It's gone from a marginally useful tool, to a full blown dumpster candidate. So what did they "f" up? Well, I have more than a few dozen workspaces organized, and these are the new failure points:

* It gives only a few workspaces names in the drop-down list. See next.

* It now sorts oldest to newest. And the sort order can't be changed. Really? SERIOUSLY? What were they thinking?? Now I have to scroll through the list to find something, and all the way down to find the latest set of workspaces I was using.

* It no longer allows me to manually arrange entries in the list - Even then, that was just a workaround to creating Groups of workspace lists. I had been arranging workspaces in specific orders just to keep them in a logical group. Not any more. Now they're all over the place with no ability to restore order.

All this makes workspaces a HORRIBLE feature now. Talk about "two steps back". When it comes to an organizational tool,  they've gone backwards by more than a mile.
